Alien: Offworld Colony Simulator

Noted

04.23.2018

Spotted in official Alien social media, email and web promos for Alien Day 2018, I've noted the use of crew insignia and the Weyland-Yutani Corp logo for their Offworld Colony Simulator.

The insignia for captain, navigator, and engineer are used for a "Career Placement Test" where your role in the RPG is determined. The Weyland-Yutani Corp logo appears in relation to the RPG, locked up with the game's title.
